Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My teaser Tuesday pick:
" Stock the lumber room of your mind with as many facts as you can fit in there. Don't attempt to distinguish between important facts and trivial facts: they're all potentially important. "
p 53 "Death Cloud" by Andrew Lane (see my review of this one here)

I came across Death Cloud last week on Goodreads. I love Sherlock Holmes, so I think I will like this book.
Great teaser, Carrie! I've had my eye on this book. I mean, it's Sherlock Holmes. What's not to like? :)
Hehe, love that teaser... although it faintly reminds me of tests because on tests EVERYTHING is important! xD haha the book looks great too!
Great teaser! I loved your review too. :o)
i did not know about this book! i have had such a sherlock holmes fascination lately! thank you!
Great teaser! I have really been wanting to read this book. I will have to check out your review.
Great teaser! I think my students would enjoy this book. I will have to keep my eye out for it and pick it up at the book store. It would be a nice addition to my Sherlock Holmes unit!
Nice teaser! Sounds like this character is going to be using his storeroom in the book.
I love Holmes! Maybe, I'll pick this one up. Thanks!!
My teaser this week is from ‘Mad Love’ by Suzanne Selfors
I have heard of this book and I really want to read it. I love Sherlock Homes. Great teaser!
That is so true! Sometimes you need to know all facts (proven and unproven) in order to make an educated decision!
Great excerpt! I really have to find this book. Like I said before, I adore Sherlock Holmes :)
Holmes is always good. Be interested to see how this author handles him.

That's some very good, very sage advice:) I'm seeing this book around a lot lately, I'm a fan of the Holmes mysteries so I think I need to add this one to the list. Thanks for the teaser Carrie!
I've seen this recommended by quite a lot of bloggers - interesting what sentences are used as part of Teaser Tuesday, I enjoyed your choice very much, thanks for sharing it.
That's a very wise teaser...I love me some Holmes, and I think this sounds like a fun twist! :)
